Redmond, WA - Do you ever imagine what the East Link light rail extension will look like once completed? Well, thanks to a new narrated video created by Sound Transit, the project comes to life – conceptually, at least – in a 12-minute clip showcasing an animated look at the advancing design for the Bellevue and Redmond portions of the project.

Once completed, the 14-mile extension will afford riders a fast, frequent and reliable connection from the Eastside's biggest population and employment centers to downtown Seattle, Sea-Tac Airport and the University of Washington. Ten stations will serve Seattle, Mercer Island, Bellevue, Bel-Red and Overlake in Redmond.
Service is targeted to begin in 2023, with construction getting underway in 2015.
